    🤷🏽‍♀️ Social media platforms and their algorithms can put people in bubbles. Some of those Texas families whose kids died from measles didn't want to vaccinate their other kids afterwards.

    Vaccinating your remaining kids, after losing one, would be an admission that your decision to not vaccinate that child was responsible for their death. @bicmay @thriftwicker @mossyrua

        In southern Utah, a measles outbreak that’s been simmering since last summer is showing signs of wider spread.

                @mossyrua @bicmay That’s the language they’ll use, because they lack both the personal awareness and self-critical honesty it takes to say “I devalued all the voices telling me that I was wrong and now I’m angry that these same voices weren’t able to convince me because I want it to be someone else’s fault”.

                The underlying problem remains.

                      @bicmay They don’t understand it because it’s been eradicated for many years. My sister had it. It destroys your immune system so at the same time she got the mumps and chickenpox, and I think it really did terrible things to her mind and body. I remember how bad it was. I was able to be vaccinated before I could get it.

                                  @bicmay @nomdeb That vaccine used to be education, but apparently willful ignorance became a “right”, rather than a malady over the last 50 years.

                                    @MissConstrue @bicmay I had measles as a kid, and my Mom locked me in the bedroom and turned off all the lights and drew the blinds because she was afraid I would lose my vision. I know I warned EVERYBODY I knew when this epidemic broke out to vaccinate as soon as they could. They just don't listen.

                                    @thepoliticalcat @bicmay I’m in that weird cohort of GenX who didn’t catch measles, but also didn’t get the vaccine because it didn’t exist. By the time it existed, I was old enough that nobody brought it up until I got pregnant in my 30s. (Surprise, infertile one, thou hast sex on a solstice? Baby for you.) You can’t get the vaccine while pregnant, but thankfully her cohort was the “autism is caused by vaccines”, so up to that point, herd immunity kept me safe. While I was still in the hospital after birth, I got vaccinated , and then got shingles vaccine last year, because iirc it’s the same disease vector. (Everyone she grew up with was vaccinated, even my snake handler fundamentalist friends weren’t crazy enough not to vaccinate their kids.)

                                      She’s hearing from people sick with the virus, as well as their caregivers, that “measles is so much worse than what they expected.”

                                      “A number of them clearly said if they had known, they would have vaccinated themselves and their children against measles, but they didn’t realize how bad it was,” Nolen said.

                                      Testimonials of people who rejected vaccination and then got seriously sick should be videorecorded and broadcasted, and watching the recordings should be a requirement for every parent who rejects vaccination for their children.

                                          @JackMexa4 @bicmay They're doing the right thing by giving the testimonials, as long as they don't turn into a redemption narrative for preaching against vaccination until they were affected personally. 😕
